[Asterisk-Users] Can I connect to an existing network?

[jglucky at blueware.net]

I am new to asterisk and have a few architecture questions.

I currently have a 3MB bonded T1 running our network and was wondering if
Asterisk be connected to the existing network and bonded T1  (which also
includes normal day to day network traffic), or do I have to dedicate a new
T1 to asterisk?

Also, do I need to use PRI lines, or can all voice calls be sent over the
T1 line?

Are there any issues I should be aware of when implementing an Asterisk
server and also what hardware would you recommend for my situation?

Thank you for your help,
